🔥🙏LIVING ON A PRAYER🙏🔥-TOCOA Week Fifty Two

 

1 year, 12 months, 52 weeks, 365 days, or 3 and a half summer vacations🌊🔥. However you want to count it. ONE YEAR AS A MISSIONARY and lets just say time flies when your having fun and slows down when you ain't

 

President Christiansen and these amazing Elders

This years been goofy everything was so different then I imagined. Like whoever is spreading the lie that people are fluent after one year in the mission. LIES, if any spanish speakers understand the difference between "fue" and "era" pls send help and yes I know they are preterit and imperfect but that means NOTHING LITERALLY NOTHING

 

Sister Christiansen and some amazing Elders playing games

I sometimes feel like i haven't changed at all over this year but I know that can't be true I just don't know exactly how I've improved, guess we'll see in another year BUT missions dope highly recommend to everybody considering it. the beginning was so brutal like first 6 months was a fight but it's gotten alot better and im excited to see what happens in THE SECOND HALF YESSUR

 

He is half way.  See you next July

Dead dog=church attendance-TOCOA Week Fifty One

 

I'm dying

 

Probably got one of the worst fevers ive ever had yesterday after church and ofc its zone conference pday today and conference tomorrow so the travels have not helped but we up🔛🔝

 

Sporting some Binance Soccer Jerseys

This family we are teaching were the mom is super inactive started coming to church consistently over the last month and none of her kids are baptized so big miracles coming up. Lowkey super cool story cause at first the kids wanted nothing to do with us but we kept visiting and kept inviting and now whenever we visit they always super hyped to see us so cool to see the lord softening hearts

 

Also lots of USA🇺🇲🏈🔥 hate recently. Probably asked like 6 times my thoughts on trump recently and its hard to tell them I support him💀💀 nah i just stay quiet but its a tough subject for the hondurens right now. Everyone keeps saying they want to throw me out of their country because we re throwing them out of ours😁😁 

 

We also were about to put a fecha with this lady and her phone rang and someone told here that her friend died. Dont know if satan or god interrupted but we skirted outta there.

 

Lotsa contacts this week, we working hard but the area is kinda slowing down right now. This one lady who going to the envangelical church listened to a lesson from us and we invited her to church and she goes "you know what, I do want to go to your church. I like how you teach and I want you to teach all my family too."

 

Beautiful Honduran Sunset

OHHH craziest story

We go to this inactive families house that always talk to us and let us share messages. The 5 year old son opens the door and goes "our dogs dead" I was like "what??? It was alive last week" then the mom comes out and says "come in side ill tell you the story"

 

Keep in mind this is the nicest dog I had ever met

 

Here's what happened

 

-her neighbors (also inactive members) complained about her dog always leaving and biting people, they went over to her house to talk to her about it

-she defends her dog and for some reason these 2 neighbors start being her up

-they throw her to the ground and her dog now starts bitting them because his owner just got beat up

-the two neighbors leave and this lady calls the police (who do nothing because police here suck and are corrupt)

-then the next day she walks outside and her dog is dead on the side of the road(the neighbors killed it with drugs)

 

So yah crazy but plus side this family came to church on Sunday for the first time in like all my time here so thats dope
